Dynamic Environment Manager™ Administration Guide 1 The VMware Dynamic Environment Manager Administration Guide provides information about administering VMware Dynamic Environment Manager on Terminal Services or Windows desktop environments. Intended Audience This information is intended for experienced Windows administrators that want to administer VMware Dynamic Environment Manager in their Terminal Services or Windows desktop environments to provide dynamic management of desktop, user, and application settings. VMware, Inc. 7 Using Easy Start 2 Use the easy start option to install a default set of VMware Dynamic Environment Manager configuration items quickly. By using Easy Start you install a default set of VMware Dynamic Environment Manager configuration items, which helps you get familiar with the personalization, application management, user environment settings, and conditions functionality. You can use the installed items for a proof of concept or use them as a starting point for your own implementation. You can select more than one version of Microsoft Office when installing the Flex configuration files and user environment shortcuts. VMware, Inc. 8 Configuring Application and Windows Settings 3 With VMware Dynamic Environment Manager, you can reconfigure the default settings of an application, if they are not appropriate for your environment. You can define which application settings can be personalized and which ones always remain at their default values. You can create any combination of policy-enforced settings and user personalization. With VMware Dynamic Environment Manager, you can also manage certain user environment settings when an application starts, such as mapping drives and printers, applying custom file, folder, and registry settings, and running custom tasks. Application configuration management enables IT administrators to manage end-user environments easily. Administrators can define settings and configurations for all users to guarantee compliance and provide a consistent environment. Note Before you configure these settings, ensure that you understand the processing order described in Processing Order. This chapter includes the following topics: n Flex Configuration Files n Download Configuration Templates n Create a Flex Configuration File by Using Application Profiler n Create a Flex Configuration File by Using an Application Template n Create a Flex Configuration File by Using Windows Common Settings n Import a Flex Configuration File From Another Location or Environment n Export a Flex Configuration File to Another Location or Environment n Create a Custom Flex Configuration File n Configuring Settings for Storing and Retrieving Profile Information n Retiring, Deleting, and Disabling Flex Configuration Files n Using the Profile Cleanup Editor n Configuring Predefined Settings for Applications and Windows Settings VMware, Inc. 9 VMware Dynamic Environment Manager Administration Guide n Using DirectFlex Flex Configuration Files A Flex configuration file is a configuration file containing content specific for VMware Dynamic Environment Manager. You create and manage Flex configuration files with the Management Console. Each application has a separate Flex configuration file that contains the locations of the settings that are managed with VMware Dynamic Environment Manager. You can either create a custom configuration file, download a configuration template, use Windows Common Settings, or use an application template. n With a custom configuration file, you manually define the settings to manage for an application. n Configuration templates are pre-configured Flex configuration files for popular applications. Using the Management Console, you can download the available templates directly from VMware Marketplace. n Windows Common Settings and application templates are Flex configuration definitions for commonly used Windows settings and applications.

An original vendor MSI may not be changed. Adjustments must always be made by MST. The original MSI Databases should Vendor MSI not be modified. In exceptional cases if transform creation is not possible or fixing of vendor MSI is not possible in acceptable timeframe, the setup capture may be performed. Vendor If vendor specific customization tool (e.g. Adobe InstallTuner, Microsoft Office Customization Tool) is available for original customization tool package, it should be used. More than one If original application contains more than one vendor MSI from different vendors, the packaging task should be divided for vendor MSI from separate tasks for each vendor MSI. different vendors Advantages and Disadvantages Application Virtualization Virtualizing applications (e.g. in App-V/MSIX) can offer customers advantages, but also disadvantages: Advantages Applications are installed and uninstalled correctly There are no conflicts between applications Multiple versions of the same application can be installed in parallel Advantages when rolling out applications Applications can be assigned per user (e.g. for VDI or Citrix) Disadvantages Virtualized versions of

  • Characteristics and Detectability of Windows Auto-Start Extensibility Points in Memory Forensics
    Characteristics and Detectability of Windows Auto-Start Extensibility Points in Memory Forensics Daniel Uroz, Ricardo J. Rodríguez∗ Centro Universitario de la Defensa, Academia General Militar, Zaragoza, Spain Abstract Computer forensics is performed during a security incident response process on disk devices or on the memory of the compromised system. The latter case, known as memory forensics, consists in dumping the memory to a file and analyzing it with the appropriate tools. Many security incidents are caused by malware that targets and persists as long as possible in a Windows system within an organization. The persistence is achieved using Auto-Start Extensibility Points (ASEPs), the subset of OS and application extensibility points that allow a program to auto-start without any explicit user invocation. In this paper, we propose a taxonomy of the Windows ASEPs, considering the features that are used or abused by malware to achieve persistence. This taxonomy splits into four categories: system persistence mechanisms, program loader abuse, application abuse, and system behavior abuse. We detail the characteristics of each extensibility point (namely, write permissions, execution privileges, detectability in memory forensics, freshness of system requirements, and execution and configuration scopes). Many of these ASEPs rely on the Windows Registry. We also introduce the tool Winesap, a Volatility plugin that analyzes the registry-based Windows ASEPs in a memory dump. Furthermore, we state the order of execution of some of these registry-based extensibility points and evaluate the effectiveness of our tool in memory dumps taken from a Windows OS where extensibility points were used. Winesap was successful in marking all the registry-based Windows ASEPs as suspicious registry keys.
